The heavily illustrated work contains everything a modeller needs to know about this prolific class.. Soft Cover. As New. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.

Description:
Oxford, United Kingdom: Osprey Publishing Ltd, 2006. New book, 336 pages. No American military unit can claim as colorful and volatile a history as the Rangers, who have led the way in America's wars for well over 300 years. This book traces the Rangers from the time of Robert Rogers during the French-Indian War of the 18th century to the most recent combat operations in Iraq. With a focus on today's Army Rangers, who combine the rugged individualism of American frontiersmen with the finely honed ability to operate as a close-knit team, wreaking havoc behind enemy lines, this fascinating volume incorporates many first-hand accounts of dramatic Ranger actions by the combatants themselves. Covers: History of Early Rangers 1600-1775: Colonial America, French-Indian Wars - American War of Independence 1776-83 - The American Civil War 1861-65 - WW2 1942-45 - The Korean War: the first Airborne Rangers - Vietnam 1956-75 - Operation Eagle Claw 1980 - Grenada Invasion: Operation Urgent Fury 1983 -…

Description:
Osprey Pub Co, 2009. New book, 320 pages. Throughout time, violent battles and bloody clashes have changed the course of history and shaped nations or empires. Battles of annihilation are rare, but ever since antiquity a stunning victory on the battlefield, even if it has failed to win the war, has captured the imagination. In this book Mir Bahmanyar examines battles of annihilation throughout history, some well known, others less so, but all equally extraordinary, to discover what sets these engagements apart, whether they achieve a decisive strategic advantage in war, and why there are fewer battles of annihilation in modern times.

University Park, Illinois, U.S.A.: Osprey Pub Co, 2005. New book, 64 pages, ELI113. After the United States' failures in special operations missions during the late 1970s and 1980, a decision was made to revamp its unconventional military capabilities. The subsequent reorganization and redesignation in 1983 created the SEALs as they are known today, and later the all-encompassing command for US special operations forces under which they operate. Since then, these Navy Special Warfare (NSW) forces have operated in Grenada, the Persian Gulf, Panama, Somalia, Bosnia, Haiti, and Liberia. NSW units have also participated in the ongoing missions of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom in Iraq. This book looks at the history, organization, training, uniforms, equipment and missions of the US Navy SEALs since their redesignation until the recent conflict in the Gulf.. Soft Cover. As New. Illus. by Welphy, Michael. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Description:
London, United Kingdom: Simon & Schuster Ltd, 2003. New book, 354 pages. As the struggle for independence in his native Chechnya moved into its bloodiest phase, Dr Khassan Baiev was enjoying a life of affluence as a plastic surgeon in Moscow. But hearing reports that war was about to break out in his homeland, he knew his skills could be more usefully employed helping the wounded. Against the advice of everyone, he returned to Chechnya and found it filled with gangs of rebel fighters, orphans and victims of terrible violence. It is remarkable how anyone could perform intricate surgery under terrible conditions, but he was driven by his allegiance to the Hippocratic Oath: a vow to serve anyone who needed his help. The Oath placed him outside politics, binding him to operate on Chechens and Russians alike, but this led Muslim extremists to swear on the Koran to kill him, and the Russian military to regard him as a traitor. He narrowly escaped execution several times. For now Khassan Baiev is a…

United Kingdom: Grub Street the Basement, 2002. New book, 327 pages 170+ photos. Frank Bailey, a recognised expert in French aviation during this period, has created as detailed a list as possible covering all the claims and losses of the French fighter force on a day-by-day basis. Unlike their British counterparts, the French did not credit pilots with kills unless htey could be confirmed, although they acknowledged 'probable kills'. Confirmed and probable claims are all listed, along with the Escadrille the pilots flew with, and the pilots running total of confirmed victories. This chronology, with its detailed information and unpublished photos, is a valuable resource for historians and researchers alike.. Hard Cover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
